What did they win? I know it was a challenge by Elon, but was there a prize associated with it?
Should be a real prize. From Elon's blog:
“We haven’t internally demonstrated that yet and we are planning a prize for the first customer that actually drives over 400 miles on a single charge. ”
So what is it or what should it be?
Congrats Dave and Adam!
Could you please post a google maps showing the route (feel free to fudge the starting point, you know how many stalkers there are on this forum)
Not sure if George wants me to tell (remember Elon's updated post that there's a prize for the first 10, I think). It is a good prize (not a million dollars ; )). We didn't really do it for a prize and I had already decided to donate whatever it was to the university or our Haiti Fund.
I think he chose secondary highways and such; the photos mostly show 2-lanes. There's a lot of great driving to be had if you eschew the freeways!I've read that if you drive slightly off-center, you can counter some of the effects of this, the idea being that there are slight grooves in the road that fill with more rain where people usually drive.
I definitely appreciate the record, and congrats to you, but 25mph in a 70 is really being hazardous to yourself and other drivers (as well as possibly being illegal), and really diminishes the record. I hope you had your hazards on at least.

You and Adam win a Golden Ticket. If you survive the tour, you'll own the company! ;-)
Congrats again. Glad tesla got involved to make it official. A guineas record is definitely something your son will remember for a lifetime
